Description

Explore the medieval art of dying in this scholarly study by Amy Appleford. Published by University of Pennsylvania Press, this work examines the poetic, didactic, and legal writings that circulated in London between the 1380s and the 1530s. Set in the period following the Black Death and leading into the English Reformation, the book investigates how an awareness of mortality shaped medieval civic culture. Appleford analyzes how these writings influenced the management of families, households, and the practices of cultural memory in England's capital. This volume provides a detailed look at the ars moriendi within the context of late medieval urban life.
